A Boy
Persecution, alienation, and affliction would eventually drive the creature into doing terrible things. Sir Walter Scott, a famous Scottish novelist, said: This monster, who was at first...but a harmless monster, becomes ferocious and malignant, in consequence of finding all his approaches to human society repelled with injurious violence and offensive marks of disgust. (Scott 617) The first person who had seen the creature, other than Victor, "Shrieked loudly" (Shelley 83) when he looked upon his ugly and massive frame. This was a reaction the creature got used to, and he decided he would be better off to stay out of the paths of humans.beleive that the monster can really stay hidden. He asks:
"How can you, who long for the love and sympathy of men, persevere in exile?" (pg ?, sorry, when they are discussing the creation of a second beast, and Frankenstein doubts that the monster would then leave that both Frankenstein and the monster prefer solitude. They both isolate themsleves, but I think it is out of necessity, especially for the monster, than out of choice.
Frankenstein separates himself from society because he is ashamed of what he did. He starts, I think, when he realizes that Justine will be executed because of his mistake, however indirectly. There is a quote, it's on page 82 in my copy, when he and Elizabeth go to see her after she has confessed :
Frankenstein "retires to a corner of the prison room, where [he] could conceal the horrid anguish that possessed [him]."
Later, he "shunned the face of man; all sound of joy or complacency was torture to [him]; solitude was [his] only consolation - deep, dark, deathlike solitude." (pg 85 for me)
